238 236 Mock Battle Request (1/2)

”Time is just right, and let's go to Gumd's.”

”Mmm.”

”A mock fight with a young adventurer...”

”Arms squeal”

'No, no! Because you don't have to ring it!

”Hmm?”

I mean, it would be more important to know how much you can do! Fran is quite motivated, but if he overdoes it, he may leave a scratch on his body and heart.

He said Gumdo was eyeing me, but I don't think it's a level I can play with a real Fran.

But even Gumd doesn't go there, you know that? Is that a higher level of adventurers than you can imagine? Enough to have a decent mock fight with Fran?

Or maybe it's the kind of educational policy that knocks kids down into the valley of Chihiro. It may not be enough damage to fall off a cliff.

Well, you'll see.

We were in conversation with Legs. We left the conference room and headed to the first floor of the Adventurers Guild. I feel forgiven for going directly to Gilmouth's room, but it's a request. I thought it would be better if we had a proper reception.

”Gumd, are you there?

The way you speak is appropriate though.

”Dear Fran. I accept. This way, please.”

The receptionist showed me the room behind the guild, not the office. Once inside, the walls and floors are narrowed and equipped with weapons. Sounds like an arsenal.

Inside awaits the armed Gumd.

”Well done!

”Mm-hmm. Why armor? Are you in a mock fight?

Fran asks in a voice full of expectations. You're totally expecting a fight with Gumd. But Gumd shook his head sideways.

”No, I'll be a referee. I just wore protective gear, like I wouldn't mind getting involved. I'm not taking part in the fight.”

”Yes.”

Too bad it was Fran whining, but he immediately reconsidered trying to work hard on his adventurer opponent. Nodding with some motivational look.

”Mmm.”

I said, ”It's appropriate, okay?

”Mm-hmm. Good luck.”

Whoa. I grip my hand and am quite motivated.... Yeah, let's wish you luck, adventurers.

”Ready?

”Anytime.”

”Then go. The kids are already gathered in the training area behind them.”

The training ground guided by Gumd was quite large. There will be about 30 meters in diameter. The walls are also thick, and even if they are slightly messed up inside, they are made to have no effect outside.

”Oh kids! Gathering!

”Chi-su.”

”Good morning!

”Koncha.”

”Yikes!

I thought it was two or three at most, and there's nine of them. The personality varies from the attitude geeking evil guys who just look like Yankees on Earth no matter what, to the guy with his pissy spine stretched and aligned that this looks hot and bitter ~.
